is one of the more intriguing players in the country, as he has been viewed as a long-term target for some schools, and he will have the chance to go to almost any college that has offered him, as he remains near the top of the board for the majority of these schools. Haviland has all the traits one could want, and will be one of the better-balanced tight ends this season, as he is going to be a primary target for

Haviland is a tight end who has been a factor for this Milton offense since he arrived on campus. He has been one of the better players in the whole class when it comes to the 2027 tight end room, and he is a guy who can contribute in many different ways, including his ability to block. Haviland has great size, and he is a force at the position. He finished last week’s game with a touchdown for the Eagles, and it would come as no shock if he finished with yet another TD in this contest against a very tough Jackson County team.

Rounding out the run on talented Georgia Tight Ends is Haviland out of Milton. At 6-foot-3 and 180-pounds he’s somewhere between a Wide Receiver and Tight End right now, and that spells a ton of trouble for middle school defensive players. He has the hands and route running of a guy on the outside, but plays with the full body functional strength of a Tight End. Also does a phenomenal job of using his frame to box out opponents and win one-on-one balls. If you imagine spinning it forward, he could progress into a player much like current Georgia Bulldog Tight End, Brock Bowers.

out of Milton also made the most of the stage he was on. Haviland efficiently caught two passes for two touchdowns and 76 yards receiving in the game. His first score came late in the second quarter on a fourth down play when Hudson Marinko threw it up and trusted the 6-foot-4, 180-pounder to go up and make a play—which he did—to put the National team back on top. His second touchdown of the day game in the third quarter when Luke Stansell found him for a 70-yard catch and run to help out the stat column and put the National team up by the same 14-point margin they’d go on to win the game by.

Another kid with a similar skill set and story to Wolny, Haviland is a prospect that blurs the line between Tight End and Wide Receiver a bit. The Georgia prospect currently stands 6-foot-3 and 170-pounds and helped Milton Middle School to an enormous season.

at Quarterback, Haviland and Degala have developed some nice chemistry. Haviland is 6-foot-2 and 165-pounds and is a mismatch wherever he lines up. With his athleticism, he’s a walking mismatch at Tight End for most Linebackers. At Wide Receiver his size and physicality make it a nightmare for Defensive Backs to step to, usually requiring help over the top from a Safety. Haviland is that new breed of WR/TE hybrids that are finding a ton of success on the college/NFL level right now. Can also play the Edge position on Defense, as a hybrid Outside Linebacker and Defensive End. His length make its hard for Offensive Tackles to block him there. All in all, an excellent football player and his physical development should dictate what position(s) he ends up at down the line.
